Procedure

To a solution of methyl 4-[(t-butoxycarbonyl)-amino]-4-phenylbut-2-enoate (3.17 g) in methanol (100 mL) was added palladium on carbon (250 mg (10% by wt. Pd)). The mixture was then placed under 50 psig hydrogen gas, and was shaken on a Parr hydrogenator for 2 hours. The mixture was then filtered through celite, concentrated in vacuo and purified by silica gel flash chromatography (3:1 hexanes:ethyl acetate) to afford methyl 4-[(t-butoxycarbonyl)-amino]-4-phenylbutanoate as a pale yellow oil in a yield of 2.61 g (82%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.45 (s, 9H), 2.07 (m, 2H), 2.36 (m, 2H), 3.69 (s, 3H), 4.59 (m, 1H), 5.15 (br s, 1H (NH)), 7.21-7.34 (m, 5H).
